Unleash the power of Nikon’s DX-format HD-SLR system.
Meet the new flagship of Nikon’s outstanding DX-format HD-SLR line-up: the D7100. Incorporating recent
advancements in HD-SLR technology, the D7100 brings a thrilling new level of image quality, speed, connectivity
and creative capabilities—a specially designed 24.1-megapixel DX-format image sensor, superior low-light
performance, ultra-precise autofocus and metering, advanced video recording features, built-in HDR, mobile
connectivity and much, much more. Pair it with any of Nikon’s superb NIKKOR DX- and FX-format lenses, versatile
Speedlights and accessories, and the D7100 will be the centerpiece of your creativity for years to come.

Capture every detail true to life
Pure. Sharp Images.
The D7100 marks an exciting advancement in image quality for high-resolution DX-format cameras. Nikon
specially designed its 24.1-megapixel DX-format CMOS sensor without using an optical low pass filter (OLPF),
resulting in the purest, sharpest images using D7100 DX-format CMOS sensor. Your photos and videos will
come alive with brilliant detail and vibrance. Combine that with fantastic ISO performance at both ends of the
spectrum—down to ISO 100 and up to ISO 6400—the processing speed and intelligence of EXPEED 3 and the
extra lens reach of a 1.5x crop factor, and the D7100 is the ultimate tool for those seeking a lightweight
DX-format HD-SLR.

Speed and precision in harmony
High-speed shooting with flawless metering and autofocus.
When the action speeds up, fire a blazing fast 6 frames per second continuously for up to 100 shots. Building on
the acclaimed autofocus system from the D300s, the D7100 uses 51 focus points, including 15 cross-type sensors
for detecting both vertical and horizontal contrast variations, to achieve fast, precise focus. The central cross-type
sensor works all the way down to f/8, a huge advantage when using compatible teleconverters. At the same time,
a highly accurate 2016-pixel RGB sensor evaluates every scene, taking into account brightness, contrast, subject
distance and color, for spot-on auto operations like Face-Priority and full-time autofocus during video capture.

Wireless sharing and control
Compatible with the WU-1a Wireless Mobile Adapter.
The D7100 makes it easy to share your great photos immediately, wherever you are. Connect the optional WU-1a
Wireless Mobile Adapter and instantly transfer shots to a compatible smartphone or tablet, then upload them to
the web, send by email or text—share them however you like. With Nikon’s free Wireless Mobile Utility installed on
your smartphone or tablet (available for both Android and iOS), you can also remotely control the D7100. Use your
phone or tablet as a Live View monitor to take shots without having the camera in your hands, a huge advantage for
everything from self portraits to digiscoping with a Nikon fieldscope.

Create movies that amaze
Dazzling 1080p videos, slow-motion and time-lapse sequences.
With full-time autofocus and manual exposure control during video recording, a built-in stereo mic and an external
stereo mic jack, headphone and HDMI jacks, the D7100 achieves exceptional cinematic reproduction and quality.
Record in several high-definition formats: 1080p at 60i/50i/30/25/24 fps or 720p at up to 60p for ultra-smooth
slow-motion sequences. Dual SD card slots give you additional recording time, and an all new 60i function enables
smooth playback on HDTVs or external monitors. And, of course, every shot looks great through a NIKKOR lens.
Create beautiful background blur with the AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G, or use the AF-S DX NIKKOR 10-24mm
for an ultra-wide-angle view that’s perfect for establishing shots and working in tight interiors.

Creativity on demand
The D7100 will inspire your creativity to new heights.
Built-in HDR (High Dynamic Range) combines shots taken simultaneously at different exposures into one beautifully
rich, high-contrast image. Picture Control gives you instant access to the color characteristics of your images, and
spot White Balance control for Live View shooting makes setting the white balance as easy as pointing to the area
in the frame that should be white. You can even apply artistic Image Effects to both stills and videos in real-time.
High-end design

The D7100 has the comfortable handling and durability of a high-end Nikon camera.
Durable magnesium alloy with moisture and dust resistance protects the camera’s internal parts from the elements.
A new 3.2-inch ultra-high-resolution 1,229K-dot LCD monitor provides crisp image playback, menu adjustments
and Live View shooting, and a new viewfinder with a low-power consumption OLED display element for bright,
high contrast data readout and provides approx. 100% frame coverage....Show more →

Apparently not from nikonrumors, they are still promising for midnight.

As written- quite interesting. No AA is radical at this level of camera. Maybe they are counting on lenses not resolving quite enough for this to be a problem? As a happy D7000 owner, I have other needs (well, no, I guess they are desires) at this time- but not uninteresting.

5 frames a second is more then enough for me.The limited buffer of my D7000 has been a huge issue. With 6 fps second and 100 shots continuous..that would be the bomb.The body is supposed to be very similer to the D600.If it is a stop up in noise reduction and dynamic range as well as a bit smoother auto focus.It is a home run for me.Doug

I suppose we will find out soon enough. But, if the "press release" above is authentic, the very first sentence proclaimed the D7100 as the "flagship" DX-format HD-SLR. Sounds to me like the end of many D400 dreams.

6fps + 100 frame buffer + no AA + f/8 focus capability = nice job! Looks like a winner for DX. May just check this out for my birding camera, especially the f8 focus (should pair nicely with my TC-20e iii). Us cheapos looking for reach for birds will appreciate the best in class pixel density (as is the 5200).

We aren't even sure it's real, are we? If it is, the camera will work for me fine IF it has a way to connect a remote radio trigger (such as the new Cactus LV5 laser trigger or my CyberSyncs.) It's also nice if they really did fix the jerkiness of the Nikon video. I've been very disappointed with the halting video on my D5100, to the point I just quit using it. IF the camera is true, I'll wait about six months for them to de-bug it and for the price to edge down a bit. I'm really spooked about being a first wave purchaser of Nikon bodies. I also intend to replace my d5100 with a d5200. Then, I should be set for the next 3-5 years. Waiting ~6 months after official release will also give me some time to see how Canon responds. I've had it with the A-holes at Nikon USA.

It's tempting. My D7000 was a really nice little camera and I have quite a few on my website I'm pretty proud of from it. The buffer was horrible, and this looks like it fixes that. I just wonder if you get a few more FPS with a grip. Hmm...
